Something I occasionally bring up on the wiki discussions I frequent.
What if Sega forwarded Paramount to make other movies based on their franchise? Especially if these movies take place on the same world and universe as the Sonic movies are set in? Thus a "Sega Cinematic Universe".
Now, I found these articles on IMDb, but I don't know if how legitimate IMDb is when it comes to their articles. As in I dunno if what IMDb says it guaranteed or not.- Altered Beast (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3674998/)
- Golden Axe (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4248148/)
- Rent-a-Hero (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4248312/)
- Shinobi (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3544200/)
- Streets of Rage (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3674982/)
- The House of the Dead (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3674992) (Not to be confused with this (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0317676))
- Virtua Cop (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4248298)
Again, I dunno how legitimate these articles are. I know Wikipedia is one of the sites where the information isn't 100% guaranteed to be accurate but they have dedicated voluntary members who make sure it's as accurate and well written as it can be. I pressume IMDb had official people who would check these things.
I like the idea of Golden Axe taking place on Wachowski's world but during the Bronze age and filmed in the same style as my favourate sword and sorcery movie Conan the Barbarian (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conan_the_Barbarian_(1982_film)). Or Shinobi being like Enter the Ninja (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enter_the_Ninja).
I also like the idea of Virtua Cop being a police division that repurpose Dr. Robotnik's left over technology. As in Virtua Cops are a SWAT team that uses drones and high-tech gadgets and weapons that the government commision them with.

Yeah, I remember some of these movies being talked years ago.
Altered Beast at least looks like it would come into fruition, but still no news till this day.

One of my wish if there is gonna be "Sega Cinematic Universe", Harrier guy would be in it.
Space Harrier is my all time favorite game, so I'll never be bored sharing this meme :

If there was gonna be cinematic universe, I doubt Sonic and the other protagonists will come together in Avengers-tier movies.
How I imagine the Virtua Cop movie.
Michael Hardy and James Cools are traditional Miami (or maybe San Francisco, given the SFPD relevence in Sonic's movie) cops. They're also the best cops on the beat. They heard of the Robotnik incident but think nothing of it. However a science and electronics corporation called Virtua-tech offered the police force the latest government technology that has been repurposed from Dr. Robotniks left over technology. The Police Chief not only promotes his best cops Hardy and Cools to SWAT but assign them to be the first "Virtua Cops" to use Virtua-tech.
While Cools was interested in using the new technology to fight crime, Hardy struggles with using the technology and given this botches an operation down at the docks this humiliates his reputation as "best cop" on the force. So the story is him overcoming in inadequancy with technology, learning to trust his partner and use the provided technology to stop the criminal syndicate.
Virtua Cops are given more than just guns, these guns being electroshock weapons that have all the efficiency and range of a regular firearm but stuns instead of kill, thus called "Stunners (https://segaretro.org/Virtua_Gun)". They're also given Lock-On headsets (https://segaretro.org/Lock-On) which, trhrough augmented reality displays, provide immediate warning and target to oncoming threats. Dr. Robotnik's drones are also repurposed and can be commanded with the headsets. And maybe they're given PDAs (https://thehouseofthedead.fandom.com/wiki/AMS_PDA) which gives information and can be used as an auto-hacking device to access computers or unlock electronic locks..
So I imagine Virtua Cops simply being a high-tech SWAT team.

That's interesting.
It could make a nod to other futuristic high-tech themed SEGA game too, ESWAT.
May be a crossover between ESWAT and VIRTUA COP.

That could work but it depends on which number of franchises Sega would choose for a Cinematic Universe. And that is a big if if they will make a Sega Cinematic Universe.
I imagine the likely candidates for movies would be the those who starred in the Sega All-Star games.
Golden Axe
I like to imagine taking place on Tom Wachowski's world only taking place during his worlds version of the Hyborian age (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyborian_Age) (which I pressume somewhen during the bronze age).I like to imagine the story starts with three gods coming through ring portals and decide to stay to forge the golden axe by melting down their rings.

What do you think the tagline for Golden Axe Movie?
Something that went like "ONE AXE TO RULE THEM ALL" ?

One Axe to rule them all
One lawsuit to fine them.
Nah, I imagine the tag line will make a pun on the word "gold". Like "The adventure of the golden era of Sega".
More hypothetical ideas for a "Sega Cinematic Universe":
Virtua Cop & Virtua Fighter
Changes I'll make to Virtua Cop would be to replace the organization E.V.I.L. for "Virtua-Tech". Virtua-Tech would be a government corporation. Maybe formerly owned by Dr. Robotnik or perhaps they simply took over Dr. Robotnik's technology to reverse engineer it and make technology for government, military and domestic use. Think of them like Umbrella Corporation only instead of a pharmaceuticals they provide cutting-edge technology. So while they appear to be the "good guys" for providing the Police with enough high-tech to start a subdivision SWAT team they could also be behind some shady stuff that makes them turn out the "bad guys", like Joe Fang being a mercenary hired by Virtua-Tech to proove how efficient their technology is for both good guys and bad guys.
The CEOs of Virtua-tech is Judgement 6 (https://virtuafighter.fandom.com/wiki/Judgement_6) who are so powerful they have a hand in various world governments. That or Virtua-tech is owned by one of the J6, such as The Devil or Death. I can imagine each member of Judgement 6 being behind most organization in other Sega franchises if made to movie.
I want to replace "E.V.I.L", an organization with a company building, because I just find it too silly for the big screen. I mean I know the game was suppose to be tongue-in-cheek for arcades but I doubt it would be taken seriously if on the big screen. (Unless it turns out to be "Every Villain Is Lemons" in which case it would be taken very seriously.)
The House of the Dead
I've actually covered this before. (http://segabits.com/forums/index.php?topic=4408.0) I would love to make than fan movie myself if I had the resources. Though going with my "Judgement 6 owns major corporations" I can imagine Dr. Curien (https://thehouseofthedead.fandom.com/wiki/Dr._Curien), Caleb Goldman (https://thehouseofthedead.fandom.com/wiki/Caleb_Goldman) or Thornheart (https://thehouseofthedead.fandom.com/wiki/Thornheart) to be "Death" of the J6 (Not to be confused with the HotD3 boss Death (https://thehouseofthedead.fandom.com/wiki/Death).) given I don't know who is the founder, president or highest bigwig of DBR Corp. is.

Lol, but "Every Villain Is Lemons" could be worked if they're going into a light heart comedy route.
I don't mind if they are going to be popcorn movies.
Thor Ragnarok showed me that a light heart comedy route wasn't a bad thing.

The House of the Dead
Light hearted comedy sure. I mean, I can imagine a "The House of the Dead" movie taking a few pages from Zombieland (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zombieland) and Planet Terror (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planet_Terror) which are my fave zombie movies. Planet Terror in particular is how I imagine the quality and humour of a House of the Dead movie can be, where Robert Rodriguez purposely "worn down" the footage reel in order to give it a more aged grindhouse theatre look throughout the movie as well as the use of bioweapons and soldiers which is something I imagine in THotD.In fact wasn't it Planet Terror that inspired the quality of THotD:Overkill?
This is why I wish I could make a fan film of The House of the Dead, because even if Sega and Paramount are willing to make a new THotD film I doubt they would go as far as Robert Rodriguez did for his movie.
If Sega insists on a modern zombie movie for THotD then... why not get Paul W. S. Anderson (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_W._S._Anderson) to direct them? Yes I know his later Resident Evil movies were panned and criticised but honestly I think what made the Resident Evil movies so flawed would work well in a House of the Dead movie. I watched his movies and be like "Okay, I can see why this is stupid for a Resident Evil movie but it would of worked for a HotD movie.", so I can imagine Anderson making a spiritual successor to those Resident Evil movies through The House of the Dead if he was offered to do so.
Golden Axe
As for Golden Axe, as I said I am a fan of the 1982 film Conan the Barbarian (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conan_the_Barbarian_(1982_film)). In fact the original Golden Axe games used some audio-clips from that movie for grunts and screams for the game. Golden Axe was obviously inspired by that movie.That said just because Paramount has modern cameras, technology and filming techniques that they used for Sonic's movie doesn't mean thet need it for all their movies if they ever decided to make a Sega Cinematic Universe.If they ever decided to make a Golden Axce movie, I would want it in the same quality as Conan's movie. There was something about the quality of movies back then that modern HD movies just don't have. I find it hard to explain. Even in HD rerelease of those movies you could still see the age and vintage of the film left over. Even the recorded sounds and music feel aged and that just makes the movie feel more quality. If Paramount ever makes a Golden Axe movie I would like it like this.
The only acception to this rule would be they could still use modern CGI and techniques for magic and such. It would just compliment the tongue-in-cheek to see movies trying to pass off as old 80s movies but still use Harry Potter or LotR special effects.
Eitherway, if Golden Axe ever gets a movie, I don't want it to end up like this (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conan_the_Barbarian_(2011_film)). The very least I would settle for it to be like this (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolfhound_(2006_film)).

Bumping because I don't want to start a brand new thread when an existing thread on the matter is here.
Let's say the "Sega Cinematic Universe" happens with Paramount releasing a new Sega movie every two years. Some of them Sonic movies, other movies based on other Sega franchise.
Now let's say Commander Walters (https://sonic.fandom.com/wiki/Commander_Walters) wanted to start his own "Avenger Initiative (https://marvelcinematicuniverse.fandom.com/wiki/Avengers_Initiative)", a project where she chooses five heroes from various possible SCU movie series and have Sonic as their leader.
Who would they be? A team of six, with Sonic as team leader. Also, what would Walter call this team?
I've already done this over here (https://sonic.fandom.com/f/p/4400000000000141817) with mixe results.
-
A team of six is good.
Not too few, not too many.
For name ... SEGA Ages team?
But I don't think Sonic wants to be a leader.
He only needs action. And direction about who he's need to hit.
Even in the comic, she put Sally or Vector in charge of leadership.
So for the leadership I'd pick Rolf (Phantasy Star II).
Or Welkin (Valkyrie Chronicles) if you counted modern SEGA games too.
(http://fs1.directupload.net/images/181023/owuo7l76.jpg)
(https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/sega-heroes/images/9/90/WelkinGuntherSH.png/)
Just like in SEGA Heroes mobile game.
-
A team of six is good.
Not too few, not too many.
There were six members in Justice League, six members in the Avengers, six members in the original Suicide Squad... usually at least one female member.
Team: S.E.G.A
After the events of Sonic's first movie, Commander Walters knows that there are people like Dr. Robotnik with great potential in human skills as well as aliens wih unnatural abilities living on Earth. He knew that if people like Robotnik or aliens like Sonic become more aware of on Earth, it would cause panic and that it be the governments job to detain those individuals as criminals. So he considered instead of detaining them as enemies, why not recruit them as guardians? So he started Project: Sierra Echo Golf Alfa, where he will assemble of six individuals of supernatural skills and qualities to serve as world protectors while GUN did the rest.
Virtua Cop
Before I watched the first Sonic movie, I was certain that Sonic would of returned to his home world and Tom would of taken that possition at SFPD and made me wonder what if he became the Virtua Cop of the franchise. While it turned out differently in the end I can still imagine Rage or Smarty making it onto the team. Or the very least Janet from VC2. They would be the Hawkeye/Green Arrow of the team.
Sonic the Hedgehog
Sonic the Hedgehog would obviously be on the speedster of the team. What's interesting is I can imagine sometime in the future, Commander Walters getting fired or replaced with a new commander (https://sonic.fandom.com/wiki/Commander). Perhaps a commander who detest a team of heroes and rather show GUN is capable of dealing with any threats to the world. However when prooven wrong during an invasion of ebony aliens he starts his own super hero team, only instead of six members only choose three.
Space Harrier
I'm thinking Harrier given he is an alien who can fly. Just like Green Lantern/Thor. Or maybe he's more like Starlord, a human who more belongs to the galaxy than space itself. I can image Opa-Opa being his personal little friend. Still the fact he needs a large bulky weapon for combat is someone inconveniant.
Shinobi
Joe Musashi is half american, half japanese. Because of this he always struggled to be accepted by most in the Oboro clan, but he became one of it's strongest ninjas and was eventually recruited to Team SEGA.
Alex Kidd
Like Sonic, he is from another world that can be accessed by gold rings. Alex Kidd is the youngest in the group (12 at least) but master of a Hung Gar-like kung fu called the Shellcore Technique which despite his size, makes him the Superman/Hulk (and to a degree Thor) of the group.
Virtua Fighter
Sarah Bryant is the Wonder Woman/Black Widow of the team. Unlike Alex' Shellcore technique which is more strength over speed, Sarah Bryant fights with Jeet Kune Do which brings out the strength of her attacks through speed.
Judgement Six
The villains of the Sega Cinematic Universe is Judgement Six. Unlike Team SEGA who are more of an active team of heroes, Judgement Six consist of CEOs and politicians of the largest governments and corporations in the world. So in a sense they already "own the world", they just want to mold it to their liking.
Judgement
As of yet, I don't know who is the overall leader of Judgement Six is. Depicted as a shady silhouette on a monitor.
The Devil
Agent Stone was the former assistant of Dr. Robotnik. Ever since Dr. Robotnik's defeat and exile to the Mushroom world, Agent Stone took Dr. Robotnik's truck into hiding. A few months later leading technology companies were brought out by a mysterious benefactor as "Virtua-tech" started to take shape, with Stone as CEO of this new company he quickly rises with developing cutting edge technology for domestic uses as well as drone tech similar to the Robotnik incident. The government tried to pin down if Virtua-tech is related to Robotnik or not but all leads ended up dead clean.
Wheel of Fortune
Unknown, depicted as a shady silhouette on a monitor. Might be Mr. X from Streets of Rage given while he is a criminal warlord, still ha some political sway that allows his gang to get away with most crime in their home city. But Mr. X could go as far as pulling political strings throughout other world governments allowing him some control over the world itself making him an asset to the J6.
The Moon
Lead by a man in a japanese mask who leads a japanese crime syndicate called Zeed. This syndicate steals and provides weapons and funds military strife and terrorist activity. J6 can request Moon for more kidnapping and mercenary work.
The Tower
Unknown. Depicted as a shady silhouette on a monitor. All that is known about them is that they monitor the organization to its extremities.
Death
Caleb Goldman appears to be the Death of J6 but in truth he is one of the three CEOs of DBR Industries, the "Umbrella Corporation" of the SCU. Thornheart being his successor if he dies. Their role in J6 is the development of bioweapons and supersoldiers via cloning, often ending up with zombie outbreaks due to their experiments.
-
That's a solid line up, especially for enemies.
As for heroes team, if there is only one slot for female character,
I'd pick someone who's more girly that could be heart of the team.
Sarah is a brainwashed fighter. I doubt she's hardly fit for the role.
As for me, reading from Sonic fandom comments where one of the comment suggest this :
Person 1: The strong one
Person 2: The eyes in the skies
Person 3: The brain of the team
Person 4: The dumb one (just for comedy)
Person 5: The heart of the team (usually girly one)
Plus adding Person 6 : The serious one / couldn't joke one. Could find something that went unnoticed by other team members.
I'll choose this :
Person 1: Sonic (Sonic The Hedgehog)
Person 2: Harrier (Space Harrier)
Person 3: Rolf (Phantasy Star)
Person 4: Werebear (Altered Beast)
Person 5: Super Monaco GP Woman ... JK. Probably Nei (Phantasy Star) or Sakura (Sakura Wars)
Make Rolf become super protective of Nei to make story interesting.
Or Harrier had a crush on Sakura, but constantly rejected.
Person 6: Tyris (Golden Axe) or Joe Musashi (Shinobi) or Axl Hawk (Streets of Rage) or Sarah Bryant (Virtua Fighter)
For main enemy? Eggman or Dremagen.
(http://fs1.directupload.net/images/181107/fgl4jur9.jpg)
Members of enemy team, I'd use your pick.
They sound cooler.
-
This is for a cinematic universe so it's fair to pressume these characters maybe a bit different from how you expect them to be.
Though for some reason I am reminded of World War Blue. I'm still waiting for a continuation of that anime... if ever will there be one.

I know, this is just me, but I couldn't picture Sarah being cute and girly..
Unless she hasn't being brainwashed yet.
Like early episodes in Virtua Fighter Anime.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NmvXP4odH-E
-
In my list I chose any of the three cops from Virtua Cop 2 for the role of both sharp shooter and tech-guy. I like to imagine the "Virtua Cop movie" being about SFPD cops who are promoted to a brand new division of SWAT that uses Dr. Robotnik's old technology. Not only do they use specially made guns that shoot "stun rounds" but also have his drone tech (https://sonic.fandom.com/wiki/Badnik_(Paramount)) and maybe PDA's that look like modern mobile devices (the same PDAs AMS end up using.)
I can imagine Janet ending up a member of Team SEGA. While not girly-girl she could probably still be more girly than Sarah Bryant.
While I don't play Virtua Fighter that much, the Sarah Bryant I imagine is someone more casual and mature. Her story could be she feels she's stuck in her brothers shadow, has expectations of others and know more about Judgement 6 than the others but not who they are.
As much as I would love to see the Sega Cinematic Universe unfold... it's likely Sega are not gonna.
-
Janet is a nice choice.
She could be like Black Widow.
Not too girly but still always show compassion to her partners, especially to Hulk.
(https://64.media.tumblr.com/4364744b44c7907cd13fa204f47833ca/tumblr_n0q96xL6G91rkrwaco1_500.jpg)
-
I like to imagine her a bit girlier than Black Widow but not too girly. Like, if Janet and Sarah Bryant were the only two girls on the team then I imagine Sarah would be a bit more mature. Sarah will probably keep her cool composure around the team while Janet will probably be more relaxed around others. She is both a cop and a tech-savvy after all.
But if I wanted a girly-girl fighter I could probably switch out Sarah Bryant for Honey (https://www.fightersgeneration.com/characters/honey.html), but her schtick is wanting to be a fashion designer who happens to be a street fighter so I dunno why Commander Walters would choose her over Sarah Bryant who has some experiance with J6.

[Sonic 2 movie spoiler (http://y2u.be/bUjYtakUZPI)]
Going along with my Sega Cinematic Universe idea, what if other Sega movies were made, but each involved the Chaos Emeralds in some way? Just like the Infinity Stones arc in MCU, what if the SCU does something similar with the Chaos Emeralds ending up in other Sega movies outside of Sonic?
These movies will all still be their own separate stories (the very least taking place on Wachowski's Earth and maybe some of them acknowledging but ignoring the events of Sonic's movies) just share a same cinematic universe where elements from one another may crossover.
In the end of Sonic 2, Sonic [sends the Chaos Emeralds upwards to who knows where. Maybe they're scattered across the world, the universe, maybe into the Special Zone if the movies will have one.] What if they were scattered across the world and were eventually found and involved in other movies outside of the Sonic films?
For example, what if The House of the Dead gets a movie adaption based on the events from the first game? Rogan and G go to the main chamber holding the BioReactor and see the awakening of Magician who has crazy pyrokinesis powers. The fight accidentally destroys the BioReactor and they defeat the Magician.
Then a mid-credit (or perhaps post-credit scene) shows other AMS agents (Maybe potential sequel movie agents) looking through the wreckage of the BioReactor wondering how Dr. Curien was capable of creating a machine that produce enough power to create such abominations with ease... then their PDAs start to go haywire and they approach a part of the machine which contains a small diamond-cut shaped crystal glowing and giving off electrical power.
-
That would be cool. Jumping from one SEGA universe to others.
I can imagine this worked for Rhythm Thief too.
(http://segabits.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/Rhythm-Thief-Napoleon-300x168.jpg)
When Raphael wondered on how *spoiler* could bring Napeleon from the past, turned out he used this small diamond-cut shaped crystal glowing and giving off time travel power.

Keep in mind I know the actual Sega games each have their own separate continuities and all that. (Except NiGHTS, I wonder if NiGHTS take place on the same world the Sonic games take place just mostly takes place in dreams.)
I just know that if Paramount ever made movie adaptions of games it's very likely they will rewrite and add to the games stories to fit in the movies (Such as how obvious this Sonic (https://sonic.fandom.com/wiki/Sonic_the_Hedgehog) is different from this Sonic (https://sonic.fandom.com/wiki/Sonic_the_Hedgehog_(Paramount))).
And given Sonic's movie takes place on Earth where he is regarded as an alien I just see this Earth as a great potential for other Sega movies to take place on and share a cinematic universe. And given Sonic is (relatively) a secret on this planet means other events such as World Fighting Tournaments (https://virtuafighter.fandom.com/wiki/World_Fighting_Tournament) of bio-infestation outbreaks (https://thehouseofthedead.fandom.com/wiki/Creatures) could happen on the same Earth Sonic now reside on. (Though I imagine it hard to cover up citywide zombie outbreaks.)
With the Chaos Emeralds now scattered across Wachowski's world, these emeralds can end up in the business of other movies as tools used by either good guys or bad guys to instigate their events.
I can't think of any other Sega games that make use of diamond-cut jewelry (other than Power stones but that's more of a Capcom game than Sega) But I can imagine cinematic-versions of Nakahara (https://shinobisega.fandom.com/wiki/Nakahara) or Mr. X (https://streetsofrage.fandom.com/wiki/Mr._X) find one of the small Chaos Emeralds. Not understanding their origins or names, just the power they provide which they used to catalyse their organizations. Something like that. that way if Sonic ever has to collect the Chaos Emeralds again he could crossover to these other games to pick them up.
(And going along with my Virtua-Tech idea, Stone [now undercover as a GUN agent, though that could be means of escape than to infiltrate GUN] could still take over some tech company and turn it into a corporate empire that is a front to make Badniks. It could be the same company that provides advance SWAT technology to Virtua Cops and sponsor the World Fighting Tournament to make their own fighting robot. Imagine, Dr. Robotnik in charge of Dural (https://virtuafighter.fandom.com/wiki/Dural)!)

Yeah, and also these are sharing same universe :
1. Space Harrier with Fantasy Zone
2. Eternal Champions with Chicago Syndicate with X-Perts
3. Virtua Cop with Emergency Call Ambulance
4. Football Manager with Championship Manager

I just know that if Paramount ever made movie adaptions of games it's very likely they will rewrite and add to the games stories to fit in the movies (Such as how obvious this Sonic (https://sonic.fandom.com/wiki/Sonic_the_Hedgehog) is different from this Sonic (https://sonic.fandom.com/wiki/Sonic_the_Hedgehog_(Paramount))).
Just like in Archie comics then. Archie Sonic, Sonic Boom, and Sonic X are from different universe.
And given Sonic's movie takes place on Earth where he is regarded as an alien I just see this Earth as a great potential for other Sega movies to take place on and share a cinematic universe. And given Sonic is (relatively) a secret on this planet means other events such as World Fighting Tournaments (https://virtuafighter.fandom.com/wiki/World_Fighting_Tournament) of bio-infestation outbreaks (https://thehouseofthedead.fandom.com/wiki/Creatures) could happen on the same Earth Sonic now reside on. (Though I imagine it hard to cover up citywide zombie outbreaks.)
With the Chaos Emeralds now scattered across Wachowski's world, these emeralds can end up in the business of other movies as tools used by either good guys or bad guys to instigate their events.
I can't think of any other Sega games that make use of diamond-cut jewelry (other than Power stones but that's more of a Capcom game than Sega) But I can imagine cinematic-versions of Nakahara (https://shinobisega.fandom.com/wiki/Nakahara) or Mr. X (https://streetsofrage.fandom.com/wiki/Mr._X) find one of the small Chaos Emeralds. Not understanding their origins or names, just the power they provide which they used to catalyse their organizations. Something like that. that way if Sonic ever has to collect the Chaos Emeralds again he could crossover to these other games to pick them up.
(And going along with my Virtua-Tech idea, Stone [now undercover as a GUN agent, though that could be means of escape than to infiltrate GUN] could still take over some tech company and turn it into a corporate empire that is a front to make Badniks. It could be the same company that provides advance SWAT technology to Virtua Cops and sponsor the World Fighting Tournament to make their own fighting robot. Imagine, Dr. Robotnik in charge of Dural (https://virtuafighter.fandom.com/wiki/Dural)!)
That would be cool. I always wanted to see how proud of Jimbotnik after creating Metal Sonic later in Sonic 3 (if it ever happened), but why should stop at Metal when he could create Dural.
Both Metal and Dural seems have something in common, they're both kinda emotionless.

Yeah, and also these are sharing same universe :
1. Space Harrier with Fantasy Zone
2. Eternal Champions with Chicago Syndicate with X-Perts
3. Virtua Cop with Emergency Call Ambulance
4. Football Manager with Championship Manager
5. Dynamite Deka with Golden Axe (hundred years difference, but still ...)

Some of these you're gonna have to explain to me. I mean I know Sonic was in Bug! but I regard that more of a cameo than a proper crossover. Some of them I understand but not all of them.
(That E-SWAT guy looks like Megaman on steroids.)
But yeah if any of these IPs get cinematic adaptions it's likely these adaptions won't be 100% accurate to the games, so I don't see why not mixing it up a little for a Sega Cinematic Universe.
While I'm still holding out for it, I have my doubts given Jeff Fowler seems more interested in building a "Sonic Cinematic Universe" and Sega nor Paramount made any announcements for any other Sega films.Just like in Archie comics then. Archie Sonic, Sonic Boom, and Sonic X are from different universe.
Pretty much yeah. And while each Sonic reality is extremely similar it still has it's own rules. Like how most of the cartoons take place on Mobius/Sonic's own planet, Sonic X takes place on Earth and Archie's pre-SGW Mobius is actually post-apoc Earth while the games take place on Sonic's own Earth and stuff like that. The movie clearly establishes Sonic as an alien and that the Earth he resides on is mostly like our planet Earth. Though the movie sequel did introduce concepts unique to the game on Earth.

Another thing Dural has in common with badniks is that they are robots that are powered by living beings. Badniks have little animals while Dural had Kage-Maru's mother.
Though the badniks in the movie are clearly not powered by little animals.

Which one? I'll gladly explained.
Streets of Rage and E-Swat?
Sharing universe or not is decided by the game creator, not by fans.
This one was from Hiroaki Chino who served as a game designer for both E-SWAT and the first Streets of Rage (and later Sonic CD).
Streets of Rage is actually started as E-Swat's spin-off called D-Swat.
(http://segabits.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/dswat.png)
The D stood for Dragon so the SOR protagonists were named The Dragon SWAT.
It's changed a lot during the development of the game, but they kept the E-Swat police as a helper.
Yup, the one who launch bazooka when we press A.

I mean I know Sonic was in Bug!
but I regard that more of a cameo than a proper crossover.
Once again, sharing universe or not is decided by the game creator, not by fans.
Bug was started as Sonic 3D game by David Warhol and friends on Realtime Associates.
It is a game in Sonic world even though they had to change Sonic became Bug, rings became blue crystals, etc due to SEGA of Japan's order.
Of course they don't want Sonic model (based on Sonic 3) that they had implemented in the game go to waste so they put Sonic as cameo.

Or short version is here taken from Segasaturnshiro page :
1994 was one of the best years for the Genesis business, and that sales trend looked set to continue into 1995.
Saturn was not yet needed in America.
Best to wait until interest in the Genesis began to wane, by which time more American-centric games – including a killer app appropriate for the region – would be available for a strong Saturn launch.
But Nakayama did not yield, SEGA of America had no choice but to quietly – hurriedly – prepare for a May 1995 release.
Sonic the Hedgehog was synonymous with SEGA, so late in 1994 SEGA of America wrote a contract with Realtime Associates to develop a fully 3D Sonic game to be ready for the launch.
At some point, SEGA of Japan caught wind of their belligerent American branch’s antics in signing over the company’s star mascot to… gasp!… an American developer, and completely lost their sushi.
Realtime Associates was NOT – under ANY circumstances – to make a Sonic game.
In order to salvage the progress already made, Sonic et al. were taken out of the game and replaced with an original creation.
Sonic became Bug, rings became blue crystals, yellow springs became yellow mushrooms, and so on.
Those gamers that swear that there are eerie similarities between Sonic and Bug! can feel vindicated; at least a fraction of what is in Bug! was intended for Mr. Sonic T. Hedgehog.
Had it not been for internal strife between the Japanese and American divisions of SEGA, a 3D Sonic title would have been available right for the Saturn’s launch, long before gamers would get a glimpse of Super Mario 64 or Crash Bandicoot.

Kage has no reason to fight in the tournament though so story about him has to be changed too.

I remember Sonic in Bug! but given it was an abrupt cameo and the size of the characters I thought it was just soemthing they added in their for fun. Also isn't the story of Bug! games take place on a movie set? So even if they're set on Sonic's world and Bug is actually a mobian insect that doesn't mean the events are real.Yeah, I have a feeling Jeff Fowler only planned to make Sonic movie trilogy and then out.

Perhaps. I can imagine Chaos Emeralds giving at least a portion of enhanced strength and power to an individual when "placed" inside themselves.

Yes, Bug is an actor so the events aren't real, lol. Once again according to "Playing at The Next Level" book by Ken Horowitz (this is one of the best SEGA history book, every SEGA fan got to read this): David Warhol said he, “was not a fan of the story-driven platform / action game, feeling that the gameplay itself, if engaging enough, would be sufficient motivation to keep playing, with few, if any, story references.” That's why he made the events aren't real, something like Altered Beast arcade ending.

That I understand. Plus Clockwork Knight did the "Toys secretly coming to life" thing a bit better than Toy Story.

Alterior forces might be what grants the fighters their powers.
For example, while I found the 2021 Mortal Kombat movie rather meh, I liked the concept of "arcana (https://mortalkombat.fandom.com/wiki/Arcana)" explaining why every Earth-realm fighter have sme inhuman fighting power. How it is something earned that enhances the fighter than just something they just the ability to shoot fireballs or flash-freeze opponents with no real reasons other "mystical martial arts".
If Jeff Fowler or Paramount really want to make a Sega Cinematic Universe, they could easily explain the reasons why certain humans are ridiculously buffed could be they have found a Chaos Emerald. And Team Sonic (Sonic (https://sonic.fandom.com/wiki/Sonic_the_Hedgehog_(Paramount)), Tails (https://sonic.fandom.com/wiki/Miles_%22Tails%22_Prower_(Paramount)) and Knuckles (https://sonic.fandom.com/wiki/Knuckles_the_Echidna_(Paramount))) or GUN (https://sonic.fandom.com/wiki/Guardian_Units_of_Nations_(Paramount)) or Dr. Robotnik (https://sonic.fandom.com/wiki/Doctor_Robotnik_(Paramount)) (with possibly a new ally (https://sonic.fandom.com/wiki/Shadow_the_Hedgehog_(Paramount))) have to go around collecting them.

2021 MK has a better story than 1995 MK indeed but yet it's not as fun to watch as 1995 MK, I wonder why.
Scorpion and Sub Zero are much cooler and yet the movie has no charm that could rival the 1995 version.

This is just in. May be if Streets of Rage Movie turn out to be succesful, Paramount would consider making SEGA Cinematic Universe.
Streets of Rage Movie in the works with John Wick creator behind the project

Paramount’s Sonic the Hedgehog movie’s success has now gotten the studio interested in going forward with a movie based on Streets of Rage.
This project will be done under dj2 Entertainment, who recently also signed a contract with Amazon to adapt the video game “It Takes Two” to film or TV.

You perhaps answered your question. The first movie had charm. Yeah it was a bit cheesy but that just applied to the charm.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bBS8WYKYggA (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bBS8WYKYggA)
The 2021 was more about explaining the lore and preparing for a tournament only for them to decide to have at it then and there. Granted I like how "arcana" explains why everyone has super combat powers but they could of just stuck them on the island and let them do their thing.

Aw hell yeah! And If I could just ask to Mr. Kolstad, it doesn't have to be in Wood Oak City or too accurate to the original games. Or even need modern cinematography equipment! Imagine if it turns out similar to Kung Fury in quality and humour.
Or the very-very least ask John Carpenter (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Carpenter) to co-produce. Because not only did he made some of the greatest action movies of the '80s to mid-90s but we all know he's a Sonic fan (https://www.sonicstadium.org/2017/11/its-official-john-carpenter-is-a-sonic-the-hedgehog-fan/). So he would know the right formula to go with for a Sega Cinematic Universe.
And it doesn't have to have Sonic or GUN or anyone from Green Hills, just confirmation to take place on the same world as Gren Hills is on.
Hoo-boy, let's see how it goes.
